[Intro: sparkling synths, playful bells, magical shimmer, tiny witch laugh] Sparkle, black ribbon Twirl past the moon Tonight, tonight I’ll be wicked soon Meow, little black cat Cape in the breeze Wicked by three Tea party, please [Verse 1: fast melodic rap, light funky bass, bouncy groove] Hat tipped sideways, broom in gear Practiced cackle, crystal-clear Mirror, mirror, count to ten Let me try that glare again Poison apples, polished bright Curse cards sealed with bows tonight Bats get cookies, guards get tea Evil starts precisely three Oops, the thunder missed its cue Oops, my broom went loop-de-loop Toss my hair and strike a pose “All according to my notes” [Pre-Chorus: floating neo-soul chords, gentle melodic lift] But when the crystal shows a tear My meanest spells just disappear I cast the spell I ring the bell Then pour the tea And wish you well [Chorus: bright anime opening hook, simple soaring melody, layered vocals] I wanna be a bad, bad witch Black-ribbon moonlight glitch Steal the moonlight, rule the floor Wicked by three, tea by four But I can’t, no, I can’t Leave a lonely heart outside World domination waits till morning Come inside, come inside [Post-Chorus: handclaps, sparkling backing vocals] La la la, ribbons on my curses La la la, sugar in the storm World domination waits till morning Stay until your hands are warm [Verse 2: faster melodic rap, playful bass-forward groove] Magic circle, chalked just right Potion bottles, candlelight Skeleton guards in scarves I made “Don’t catch cold on the night parade” Princess captive, scones are warm “Sorry, did the chains alarm?” Cross my arms, assume command Hide the teapot in my hand Black cat watches from her chair “Do I look terrifying there?” One slow blink, a velvet sigh Fine, I’ll give it one more try [Pre-Chorus 2: warm neo-soul harmony, emotional lift] Every curse I send away Comes back softer than I say Midnight ink Rose-gold spark Why does kindness Glow in the dark? [Chorus 2: brighter drums, stronger layered vocals] I wanna be a bad, bad witch Black-ribbon moonlight glitch Own the midnight, charm the floor Wicked by three, tea by four But I can’t, no, I can’t Leave a trembling heart behind World domination waits till morning Stay a while, stay a while [Post-Chorus 2: glittery backing vocals, handclaps] La la la, black roses blooming La la la, lanterns in the storm World domination waits till morning Stay until your hands are warm [Bridge: half-time neo-soul, soft electric piano, sparse arrangement] On the far side of the moon I kept one teacup set for two Practiced curses at the stars Just to hear them answer back Tie the ribbon, strike the match Let the little kettle sing Maybe gentle magic starts Where a lonely spellbook ends [Build-Up: rising drums, synth arpeggio, claps building] Tonight, tonight Can I be bad? Tonight, tonight Just a little bad? But wait, but wait I know the score Wicked by three Tea by four [Final Chorus: full anime finale, layered harmonies, joyful emotional lift] I wanna be a bad, bad witch Black-ribbon moonlight glitch Steal the moonlight, rule the floor Wicked by three, tea by four Now I know, yes, I know I can keep my velvet night World domination waits till morning Come inside, come inside [Final Post-Chorus: crowd-singalong chant, sparkling full arrangement] La la la, ribbons on my curses La la la, sugar in the storm World domination waits till morning Stay until your hands are warm La la la, black cat dancing La la la, broomstick bouncing If my curses bloom with light I’ll still call them wicked tonight [Outro: playful bells, soft shimmer, tiny witch laugh] Sparkle, black ribbon Twirl past the moon Wicked by three Tea party soon
